"You can't take the initiative, you can only be passive." I spread my hands and said, "I hope that this disappearing crisis can be resolved at that time, if the frequency increases, the panic will be infinitely amplified, and everyone will be in danger." If it's not good, it's suddenly gone. ”

"After all, the night department is weak, so it's good to do what you can." Jiang Wuliu also said helplessly: "The original intention of our establishment was to target Mr. Bloodbreaking of the Hundred Refining Sect, and no one expected that the situation would be chaotic. ”

"Today is like this first, Niu Er and I will go back first, Uncle Jiang, pay attention to rest, the previous dream is too scary." Xu Huayan said a few words of concern, and after cleaning the broken glass on the ground with me, she left the research room.

I came to Ning Su's office, saw that there was no change in the situation of the embarrassment, sighed, I returned to the private room, touched the mutilated "Notes of the Dead" on my chest, and quickly fell asleep.

In the evening, there was a sharp knock on the door, I got up and opened the ground, and saw that it was Qin Ghost Ming with black circles under his eyes, his ass seemed to be fine, and he hurriedly said: "Niu Er, when you go to the office hall, there may be another disappearance incident!" ”

I don't know how they predicted it, but I didn't say anything and went to the square table with him and sat down.

Xu Huayan and Aojing Mountain are all there.

Jiang Wuliu said sleepily: "Summoning everyone here temporarily, because something happened just now, which may indicate the arrival of a fourth disappearance event, so I sent you to the place of the incident urgently." ”

"Comrade Xiao Jiang ......" Aoi Shan is also a few hundred years old, and it is not an exaggeration to call Dr. Jiang Xiao Jiang. He said in an old-fashioned manner: "I am sick, I am weak, and I was captured by Transgender Yan as a coolie at noon, and now even a dog can knock me down." ”

Xu Huayan asked disdainfully, "What do you want to express?" ”

"It's tantamount to a wasted person, you can't fight. What are you sending me for......"

Jiang Wuliu explained: "If there is a battle, you don't need to participate. The reason why I called you is because I am proficient in the methods related to the magic circle, so I am not prepared. ”

"Oh, that's good." Aoiyama had no objections.

I asked suspiciously, "Dr. Jiang, I would like to ask what happened, how do you predict that there will be a fourth disappearance event?" ”

"The impossible thief posted another challenge book, and this time what he wanted to steal was, Wanda Plaza." Jiang Wuliu said with a strange look in his eyes, "If it weren't for the previous three disappearances, this challenge would have been ignored by a person, but now it is impossible to ignore it, it is better to believe it." ”

"This ...... Stealing Wanda that covers a lot of land? The appetite is too great, if it is true, if there is no challenge book, with the flow of people in that place, thousands of people will disappear with the building. ”

Aoi Mountain, who had no idea about this, was surprised: "Occasionally, obediently, make a square disappear, is there anything else in this method besides the magic circle?" ”

"I don't have time to explain to you for a while, I'll talk about it on the way." Xu Huayan motioned for the other party to be quiet, and she asked, "When did the impossible thief say to start, where is the challenge book?" ”

"There are pictures and truths." Jiang Wuliu pressed a button on the armrest, and a challenge letter appeared on the electronic screen, and the handwriting on it was exactly the same as on the previous challenge book, and I noticed that it read: "At half past eight tonight, I will steal Wanda Plaza on time, not to go in and steal, but to steal the building with the square, if you don't believe it, please watch it on time~~."

Signed: Impossible thief. ”

I tightened my eyebrows and said, "Will this impossible thief accidentally become the chosen dog leg of the spirit beast after he dies, and send him to choose the target according to his own needs." ”

"If that's the case, there's no need for an impossible thief to issue a challenge." Xu Huayan was puzzled.

Aoiyama blurted out: "Do you still need to ask?" The next challenge book must be for pretending. Wait, you guys talk about spirit animals, what spirit animals? ”

"I'll talk to you slowly when I'm on the way." Xu Huayan repeated.

Aojingshan was extremely aggrieved, "If you dare to love, I will be kept in the dark." ”

"Don't say it, it's possible." A gap opened between Qin Ghost's thick black eyes, "The impossible thief has memories of his life, for those who have repeatedly missed and want to take revenge on this society, now he has turned over, just before the initiator of the next time, the next challenge book, at first no one cared anyway, when it really disappears, the impossible thief will also become famous." ”

"Isn't he worried about the boss finding out?"

"Pick an impossible thief as a dog's leg, and if you call it a spokesperson, it means that the other party doesn't understand the situation of this era. If the initiator can find the clues, what is the use of doglegs. ”

"That's right." Xu Huayan smiled, "It is precisely because of this that we have traces." ”

"Dr. Jiang, where did you find the challenge book, and did you monitor the impossible thief?" I sighed and asked, "This guy is also a talent, he failed so many times in his life, and none of them found out his identity." ”

"The challenge was posted on Wanda's glass door, and the surveillance that was going on here happened to be broken, and the surrounding surveillance, you know, was so crowded that it was unrecognizable." Jiang Wuliu explained.

Xu Huayan stood up and said, "Without further ado, there are still two hours left until half past eight, let's rush to the scene to take a look." ”

"The police have intervened in this matter covertly and cleared Wanda Plaza, and now there is not even a staff member, so there is no need to hide it when you get to the place." Jiang Wuliu then gave instructions as usual, and then broke his wheelchair and returned to his research room.

And on the dead street in the north of the city, the star picker, the sword idiot, and Ning Shuying are also rushing to Wanda in the city center.

The four of us were fully armed and took the elevator to the door above, and to my surprise, when Qin Guiming started the car, Aoi Shan actually said that he could drive, and his ass was not good, and it hurt to sit, so he gave him a chance.

I saw that the driver's seat of Aojing Mountain had a clear operation, and the car drove steadily on the road, I thought carefully and asked, "Teacher Cang, when did you learn it?" ”

"Haven't you ever eaten pork, haven't you ever seen a pig run?" Aoiyama whistled, "If you see too much, you'll be able to see more." ”

"For this, I can only say envy." I leaned back in my chair and listened to him little by little about the speculation that the initiator was a spirit animal.

When Aoi Shan listened, his face changed suddenly, and he was so unstable that he almost drove the car up the tree!

Fortunately, I quickly stepped on the brakes and asked suspiciously, "Mr. Cang, what's wrong with you?" Don't say that the other party is like the door protector spirit beast of your Cangtian Sect, I know that you love to recognize relatives. ”

Xu Huayan and Qin Ghost Ming were knocked on the head by the shaking, and they all wanted to settle accounts with this guy.

"Niu Er! Transsexual Yeon! Stay up all night! Aoi Shan said bitterly: "Quick, quick, I'm going to turn around and go back to the department, if you don't agree, I'll go down by myself!" We're not here to investigate, we're going to die! ”

"What's the situation?" We looked at each other, why did Cangjing Mountain listen to the clues and speculations collected on the spot, it was like a coward, although the spirit beast was powerful, it would not scare him as a descendant of the ancient Great Sect, right?

At this time, a flash of inspiration flashed in my head, and I saw and heard everything I had seen and heard, so it was very likely that we were wrong to speculate that the initiator was not a spirit animal, and it was far more terrifying than we imagined......

I hesitated and asked, "Do you know what that is?" ”

"It's not just that I know, I just know too much!" Aoi Shan patted his chest and said with deep jealousy: "Listen to me, let's go home...... Now, I finally understand why the underground passages, bases, and mines you experienced the night before disappeared, but there was no sign of the magic circle, prohibition, or true element mechanism. It's over, it's over, it's broken, it's a catastrophe, it's a catastrophe! Even if we escape the present, we will die in the future. ”

"What are you talking about, it's messy, don't rush, explain it to us slowly." Xu Huayan pinched the other party's neck and shook it vigorously

"Big brothers and sisters, it's not a spirit beast, it's a powerful and unparalleled beast!" Aoi Mountain's expression was exaggerated, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "Not only that, but it is also the head of the four evils in ancient times, and it can create a space in its body, so it eats a lot of food, and eats everything, but it also prefers food." If it is allowed to grow unlimitedly, sooner or later, the earth under our feet will be completely eaten by it sooner or later, of course, after eating, because it has no place to stay, it will also die, but it will not care so much, it will only take some food as an appetizer, and then eat it indiscriminately, think about how terrifying it is. ”

Beasts?

The first of the four murderous people in ancient times...... This ancient refers not to the era of change from ancient times to modern times, but to the time of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. I couldn't help but ask curiously: "It does sound a little scary, it's been a long time since I introduced it, what kind of beast is it?" ”

"Gluttonous ......" Aoi Shan's voice trembled.

"Gluttony?" My eyes were full of fog, "These two words are also familiar, I always thought it was a mythological story, is there really such a fierce beast in the world?" Even if there is, it's really so weird...... Let a huge building disappear into thin air? You know, the gluttony in the record is just like that, nothing fierce. ”

Aoiyama corrected: "It's not gone, it's eaten." ”

"Eat! You mean, it ate the video store on the high street? "I was amazed and finally understood what it meant to eat everything. Immediately, I asked worriedly, "According to the gluttony you described, what about the people in the video store?" And what about the island masters and miners in the passages, bases, and mines the night before? All eaten? ”

"Gluttony likes to eat people." "If it's in a good mood, it might imprison the humans involved in the building in its internal space, and experiment with cooking methods one by one until it makes a meal that satisfies it," said Aoiyama Ishipo. ”

If this is the case, perhaps the casualties of the people who disappear with the building will be minimized, Xu Huayan then asked, "What if it is in a bad mood?" ”

"Mixed with the soil of the building, it is chewed and eaten...... "Aoiyama's goosebumps are on his face, "This kind of thing, at our time, it is not unprecedented." The beast's mood is unpredictable, who knows when it will be in a good mood. Gluttony does like to choose a controllable human to be a spy in order to avoid the danger of the Earth Saints. ”

I said worriedly: "It's not good, it doesn't matter if the master of the island country is dead or alive, there are more than a thousand men of his own side in the underground mine." If you catch up with it and you're in a bad mood, you'll even eat the passages, bases, mines, and so on......"

"Shit! The people who were trapped in the so-called underground base the night before were relatively safe! Aoi Shan roared calmly: "Because, that is the gluttonous body!" ”

"What?!" I shouted in horror, "Are you sure you're not kidding?" ”

Aoiyama shook his head.

Unexpectedly, the underground passage, the base, and the mine are all part of the gluttonous body! I used to think that it was a master civilization left here in ancient times, and the mine against the sky was not dug and evacuated without knowing it......

I said with palpitations: "I didn't expect to play in the body of the fierce beast." ”

"It means that the ground that will be opened is actually a gluttonous mouth?" Xu Huayan was a little confused and said, "Oh my God." The passage Niu Er said shouldn't be a gluttonous esophagus......"

The mysterious "underground passage" is indeed very abnormal, not only hard, but also extremely smooth, as if it is stretched open, if it is really the esophagus of a fierce beast, it can explain the situation of this "magic work".

Chen Jun jumped out, and he said with a smile in his eyes: "My big dung is unparalleled, I can throw dung in my gluttonous body in my lifetime, and the big snot gentleman also shook his nose, this cowhide is enough to blow for 10,000 years, it's worth it!" ”

I wondered, "But why does that kind of van turn on automatically?" Not only that, but why is there a black mineral substance in the gluttonous body that restrains the master and the ghosts...... No wonder it's so hard to mine. ”

"Maybe it's a special substance on the body, which just happens to activate the mouth of gluttonous camouflage." Qin Ghost Ming speculated and said with a smile, "As for the black minerals, haha, it's quite like a stone derived from eating miscellaneous." The case is getting more and more interesting, and I really want to see for myself what gluttony is like in the body. ”

"Hey, don't think too much, gluttony is not a fun thing, it is the first of the four murders in ancient times! What you are now writing. The ferocity is estimated to be no more than one thousandth of the real gluttony, but the love of food is real. "Aoiyama finished reading the information I found on my phone, and he leaned there and looked at the sky, as if he was deep in thought.

Xu Huayan leaned in my ear and whispered, "Niu Er, what is he thinking?" ”

"Recall the gluttony." I shrugged my shoulders and said curiously: "The old man has been here for sixty or seventy years, and the underground mine has always been silent, without any changes, it seems that this fierce beast has been dormant here for a long time, and for some reason, I can't guess." Then again, why did it suddenly start moving the night before, and then it didn't take long to pick a 'spokesperson' and make the building disappear. It's a bit sudden, could it be related to the fanfare confrontation between us and the island country's master channel? ”

Qin Ghost Ming guessed: "The movement is so big, maybe it will wake up the sleeping glutton?" ”

"No, it won't." I instinctively shook my head, the reason for the gluttonous comeback should not be so simple.

"As for gluttony, we'll put it aside for the time being." Xu Huayan proposed: "Aojing Mountain also said before that a creature of this level of gluttony can only be dealt with by an Earth Saint. Nowadays, how can there be an earth saint, at best, there are only a large number of great heavenly powerhouses who seek to break through the opportunity. Therefore, gluttony really plans to eat endlessly, then this catastrophe will sooner or later affect the entire earth, even if we go home at this time, we can't hide from the fifteenth day of the first day of junior high school, it is better to hide it from Uncle Jiang for a while, let's keep the original plan unchanged, go to Wanda Plaza to find out the situation, and take the initiative to grasp more relevant information. ”

When Qin Ghost Ming and I hesitated, a deep movement broke the silence.

"Uncle Ben agrees with Transgender Yeon." Aoi Shan said uncharacteristically.

I pinched my ears and said in surprise: "I heard you right, I was scared and clamoring to go back to the department before, but now I am moving forward?" This is much more unusual than the eggs laid by a rooster. ”

"The rooster doesn't really lay eggs, it lays eggs." Aojingshan started the car and said solemnly: "Do you want to hear about the gluttony of the Earth Seal in our era?" ”

"Of course, if you get the car behind the wheel first." Xu Huayan said with a smile.

"There is only one of the four fierce beasts in ancient times, so this gluttony is the one back then. For gluttony, it cannot be killed, it can only be sealed, and the validity period is about a thousand years at a time. As for why, it has to start from the time of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, after the contemporary powers caught the gluttony, they were ready to kill it. It's a pity that because it was accidentally discovered that the gluttony itself is of the same origin as the earth, if it is killed, it will inevitably affect the leylines, so there is only a seal. Originally, the seal was indefinite, but after a thousand years, the gluttonous heart was reborn and became the second generation of gluttony, and the seal became invalid. In this way, every time it awakens in the seal, it will cause a bunch of disasters, and then a group of earth saint powerhouses will join forces to seal it again, and then after a thousand years, the natal heart will be reborn, and the cycle will start again and again, and the cycle will come to us, another thousand years, forgetting that it is the first generation of gluttony......"

My heartstrings were tugged, and I asked curiously, "So the earth saint of your time sealed it?" ”

Aoiyama nodded, shaking his chin again, "This generation's gluttony is stronger than before. In this way, no matter the good and evil forces in the world, as soon as they reach the level of the earth saint, they will take the initiative to stand up, and there are a few hidden old earth saints. If I'm not mistaken, at that time, about one hundred and three earth saints launched the operation of 'Hundred Saints Sealing the Murderer', and they faced up with gluttony, even tracking and fighting, each doing what they could, and finally succeeded in defeating gluttony, the other party was covered with bruises, and the hundred saints were killed and injured countless times, so when I fought that, there were fewer masters with the strength of earth saints in the world, and the Cangtian Sect became the first major sect of the righteous path! ”

"The last time the gluttony of the heart of life was reborn, he killed so many earth saint powerhouses?" I was incredulous, and said worriedly: "The combat power is so strong, and it loses both sides, let's go, I'm afraid it's not enough to stuff people's teeth." ”

"After defeating Gluttony, it's time to seal. I participated in that ceremony, and my gluttony was very strong, and an unwilling look could make me almost explode to death in my status, but fortunately I was protected by my father. ”

Xu Huayan blinked, "How big is the gluttony?" ”

"The big one is indescribable, it stretches for thousands of meters, and the width and height seem to be the same." Aoi Shan suddenly let go of the steering wheel and finished the gesture, he hurriedly held it, "It looks very strange, it has horns like cattle and sheep, and its breath is like thunder, and it is full of anger." Gluttony can anthropomorphize, but it must be in a beastly form when sealed, and it will be driven into a spatial crack deep underground to seal it. That place, not far from the Heavenly Sect, seemed to be the area we had arrived in the night before and its surroundings. ”

"So big?"

Immediately, I was relieved, gluttony has that kind of scale in the body, and it is understandable that it is big.

"Something is wrong." Xu Huayan crossed her fingers and counted, "The last time you were in the sealed gluttony of that era, it has only been a few hundred years now, and there is still a long time before the millennium period, and the gluttony was born out of the convention?" ”

Aoiyama guessed: "I suspect that it was due to external factors. ”

"Could it have something to do with the fact that the master of the island country has established a base here and is plotting with Dr. Q to mine black minerals on a large scale?" I asked in disbelief, "Destroying the structure in the glutton's body and stimulating it......"

"If it's true, the island devil and Dr. Q's piece of shit is a direct factor in provoking the catastrophe!" The tarot cards between Qin Ghost Ming's fingers flew over, and he said while divining: "But Glutton's comeback this time, the first time to swallow it in the real sense, is a video store...... Isn't your appetite a little small? ”

"It's testing this era, and then it's going to take an inch, haven't you seen that the impossible thief has already issued a challenge to steal something to reach the square?" Aoiyama looked ahead and speculated, "Although I don't have any concept of this place, I know that the scale is not small, but judging by the importance you guys, I know that the scale is not small. Each time it is done bigger than the last, and if there is no earth saint to stop it, the gluttony will become even more unscrupulous. ”

My mind moved and I asked, "Who are the rest of the three murders in ancient times?" Where did it go? ”

"Chaos, Qiqi, and Han Qi were all killed by the powerful Earth Saints in ancient times, and the flesh and bones were refined into magic objects, magic circles, and the like. The reason why gluttony has the same origin as the earth is because it is too greedy, and when it has no to eat, it gnaws on the land to strengthen and strengthen itself, and I don't know how many leylines it eats by mistake. If you kill it, some of the leylines that are eaten will also disappear, and if you don't kill it, the leylines will have the same effect inside it as it does on the outside. It also eats part of the leylines by mistake, so it has the ability to travel through the earth. ”

Devouring the leylines......

According to the "Ghost Dog's Codex", the leylines are equivalent to the blood of the earth, and if the leylines are lost too much, the entire earth will be affected and become lifeless, the survival rate of plants and crops will be greatly reduced, and the frequency of earthquakes and tsunamis will increase!

The importance of leylines cannot be overstated.

So I can understand the ancient master's practice of only sealing and not killing gluttony, and I am worried that killing it will cause the leylines in his body to be buried, so I retreat to the second place every thousand years, and seal the gluttony!

"Gluttony is really a living ancestor." Xu Huayan sighed, "Teacher Cang, after all, you have experienced a sealing ceremony, does it have any weaknesses?" ”

"I only watched the ceremony, and I didn't participate in catching it." Aojing Shan thought for a moment and said, "Under the ruins of the Cangtian Sect, it is estimated that there is a backup of the Codex of the Earth Saint of the Cangtian Sect at that time, and we will dig it up when we go back, and it is possible that we have written it down." However, every time, it is used to learn from the sealing secret techniques of the ancestors of the earth saints thousands of years or even thousands of years ago, and it has been tried and tested repeatedly. This complete sealing secret technique, after all, I am just a status, I don't know which hidden small sect it is held, I only remember that the other party was specially established for the purpose of inheriting the sealing secret technique for gluttony, and it may have long been annihilated in history. ”

"Suddenly there was an inexplicable feeling of sadness." When did such an important thing in my heart disappear to this day? In order not to be destroyed by gluttony, in order not to make the earth barren, how many generations of earth saints have paid and sacrificed in exchange for a prosperous future generation...... There are more selfish, less selfless, is this gluttonous disaster destined to teach a devastating lesson to modern masters or all mankind?!
